Exploring my own backyard and beyond

Let’s face it, the holidays are here. I’ve come to terms with the fact that it is impossible to prepare for their sudden arrival, so instead of stressing over it, I am just going to go with the flow and enjoy it. Starting with this fun holiday recipe I found on Corks + Cheers blog. Your holiday guests will be so impressed when you hand them a cold glass of wine in an Apple Wine Glass. How to make your…

Cheers to the weekend! If you are a foodie, the Clearwater Beach Uncorked Food and Wine Festival is a must! The weather couldn’t have been more perfect for this beachside food extravaganza. And the views unmatched. Soft white sand and ocean views while sipping and savoring delicious delights from the area’s most notable restaurants and spirit vendors. Yes, please! Over the two-day event, chefs from area restaurants participate in cooking demonstrations, competitions, and interactive experiences. Be sure you add this event to…

Epcot International Festival of the Arts has returned to Disney for the second year. Similar to the ever-popular International Food & Wine Festival, the Festival of the Arts has a variety of savory and sweet treats throughout the park along with artistic displays and interactive exhibits. Here are my Top 10 favorites at Epcot’s Festival of the Arts: *Warning: This post may induce a sugar coma* Trio of Savory Croissant Doughnuts: Whipped Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese with Fresh…

In my last post, I listed some of my favorite fall events and festivities in Orlando, one of them being Epcot International Food and Wine Festival. If you’ve been to this event, or just attempted to eat and drink around the world, you probably noticed how popular it is among the bachelor and bachelorette parties. Well, I was one of those a few weeks ago. Seems like nowadays you can’t go to Epcot Food and Wine without making some sort…

What does Fall mean to me? Crisp air, falling leaves and cozy blankets. Unfortunately, Florida doesn’t lend itself to these luxuries very often. In fact, the first Florida “fall front” blew through earlier this week and the temperatures finally fell from the high 90’s to low 80’s (we’re even going to drop to 70’s next week!!!!!). So, while I would love to believe we would have a cool fall season, it likely won’t happen, so fall to me includes theme…

While I’m excited it’s the weekend, I’m a little nervous for what’s to come. I mean there’s the usual errands and cleaning to do, but come Sunday night around 9 o’clock, it will be that time when my heart is once again ripped from my chest. I’m still trying to catch up after the emotional overload that was last weekend. First of all, The Walking Dead…I wore black on Monday for a reason. After 7 seasons, these characters have become…

You know it’s October in Orlando when all your friends Facebook check-ins are at Epcot Food and Wine Festival. It’s where every local spends their weekends, and their paychecks. It doesn’t matter how crowded, how hot or how many hours it takes to find your car at the end of the day, every one is going to do it. Based on my Facebook, at least 75% of my friends are at Epcot today and a few more headed there now. After I finish…

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again… That is definitely my plan when it comes to Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. This weekend I ventured forth to conquer the world, but the world kind of conquered me. It was unseasonably hot and the 4-5 drink stops (I can’t really remember) started to do a number on this out-of-practice foodie. I need a little time to warm up, so even though Food & Wine conquered me this time,…

About Me

Hey there! First of all, thank you for checking out my blog!
As you have probably gathered, I like traveling, so a blog was born. I also enjoy the great outdoors, trying new things and simply experiencing life to the fullest.
I'm lucky to live in one of the top tourism destinations in the world which means there is always something to do, and I try to take full advantage of that. Whether it's in the state of Florida or beyond, I will do my best to share all these experiences, so you too can experience them, if you so choose.
Let me know how I'm doing! I'd love to hear from you or work together. Shoot me an email at mylittlelifesjourneys@gmail.com or follow me on social media.
